|
Jan-27-19 | | Ruminator: I was playing over this game in Andy Soltis's work, 'Frank Marshall, United States Chess Champion.' His comment after 56.N:b2 was priceless. "Some kind of miracle has occurred." He also mentioned that after 65. . . . Ke4, Black is lost and that if Marco had played 65 . . . Ke6, he could have still drawn. A great game by Marshall. |

Jan-17-23 | | generror: Truly an awesome swindle. I love these kind of stuff! Someone said this game is awful, maybe (I haven't let Stockfish dissect it), but moves 44 to 56 just make it wonderful. Another someone asked what tablebases say about the position after <56.Nxb2>. I have no idea, but I am very sure this is won for white. Harass the black pawn with the knight to keep the black king occupied, all the while advancing your two connected passed pawns, preventing the king to come in their way. I think even I could do it. (I have recently spent a few hours learning basic pawn endgames, and I can assure you it's pretty cool stuff.) |

As "tired and emotional" as Delia Smith at half time during Norwich City 2-3 Manchester City, for instance.<TheSlid>
Indeed!
